Almost Wordless Wednesdays (5)

I almost forgot about it being AWW today.  Thankfully I was reminded by Sean's post.

This picture was taken from the top of the highest point in the Tahoe Sierra Wilderness, and that particular misadventure was detailed meticulously at A Misguided Ascent & Summit of Pyramid Peak.  We were not prepared for the hell that awaited.  Yes, I blame Clara.

My friend Salman in the Eastern Sierras.  Poor guy is having a hard time deciding whether to concentrate on his book or the incredible view of Laconte Canyon stretching out in front of him.

About 5 hours into the Cactus to Clouds adventure, probably the most difficult single day of work in my life.  I was accompanied by my comrade, Kalvin, and the "hike" would span 22 miles, 14 hours, and well over 12,000 feet of elevation change.  Here I am looking out over the desert floor where we started the day at 3:00 A.M.

This is being posted on Tuesday night, in case I forget about it tomorrow.
